New Hope For Humans in an A.I. World: Dr. Rosenberg Addresses a Sold-Out Crowd at TEDxKC

“So here we are…the most intelligent species on Earth. Congratulations. Unfortunately, things are about to change,” Louis Rosenberg, Ph.D., founder and CEO of Unanimous AI

Last month, Dr. Rosenberg addressed the sold-out crowd of more than 4,000 attendees gathered for the ninth annual TEDxKC event. TEDxKC – the largest TED event in North America – was hosted on Friday, August 18, at the Kauffman Center for Performing Arts in Kansas City, Mo.

Reflecting this year’s TEDxKC theme — “Perspective: Where You Stand Matters” — Rosenberg challenged attendees to consider the valid fears of artificial intelligence while offering a new perspective on a new form of AI modeled after swarms in nature. Swarm AI offers humans an opportunity to amplify their collective intelligence, not replace it — and it may be the key to keeping humanity human.

Every week Unanimous A. I. brings together swarms of regular people just like you to help us predict sporting events, investment opportunities, and technology as well as provide insight into everything from pop culture to politics.
